You're aware of course that KGB is no more (it was disbanded in 1991 I believe)? Now there's FSB in it's place, but it doesn't have any kind of 'special force' per se. They're using Spetsnaz Alfa group for their actions and they're not very good. Part of what makes modern SF units so good is the tactics they employ. This is not an example of proper tactics for this kinds of units. There are more examples of course (Beslan school massacre), why the hell would you send your special forces to just brute force the problem?

But are you pretty sure that totalitarian army used to fight asimethric war will not try rise the hightly loyal, trained soldiers that can be in pair with western counterparts? (in everything but equipment?) I am not... How would they possibly be equall to western soldiers? Do you honestly think that the people writing and analyzing tons of war data, and got their jobs by being the best of their class, lose out to a bunch of NK brainwashed freaks that got to be "grand glorious eternal general of the eternal army of socialist glory" because his dad had the title before him? There is more to war then being able to walk over glass... It's the same reason those Spetnaz video's are fun but they show exactly why the fuck that training sucked balls. A soldier doesn't need to be able to have a concrete block broken on his stomach. He needs to be able to understand in the field tactics. It doesn't really matter how many shovels they can take to the stomach when the other team flanks you and proceeds to slowly but surely bleed your team to death. I can't believe anyone seriously buys into North-Korean propaganda. | ||

Didn't they do an episode on the various elite soldiers on that SpikeTV show? The ultimate warriors or some shit. Forget who won it, but I think it was a tie between 2. ._.

Love the BOPE; love their training program too. Those movies didn't really do justice to their regime though as you said. | ||

The only thing I know about the commandos is that they have the highest motivation for any special forces in the world. Which makes them the best. | ||

I know a couple of you pointed them out already but one veteran from that unit actualy wrote a book about it. He been blackmailed into not publishing it ( he's also a pedo, apparently all of these people are marked for life afterward ). It's in the french but the guy is an absolute bad ass. ( he singleandedly killed 27 terrorist during an ambush... He was the one who was behing ambushed). tis book srsly relate absolute terrible war stories. it has incredible sociological/political/psychological value. Link to said book : http://www.renaud-bray.com/Livres_Produit.aspx?id=929196&def=Nous étions invincibles,MORISSET, DENIS,COULOMBE, CLAUDE,9782894313855 | ||

All these special forces are pretty much equal in equipment and training. They are not even trained or supposed to be put in front of each other. The question is dumb. A good special force unit is a force unit that can carry delicate opp very cleanly, without collateral damages and losses. We know nothing about which one is the "best", whatever than means. | ||

I also like how they handle their business(see Moscow theater hostage crisis). How can you like that? This action was complete failure, just like the Beslan action and many more conducted by Spetsnaz. | ||
